Lucas Krull - Page 2 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Back with Denver Krull re-signed with the Broncos on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Impact Krull -- who entered the offseason as an exclusive-rights free agent -- was tendered a contract by the Broncos last month. Now that he's officially been re-signed, he'll reprise his depth role in a Denver tight end corps that now will be led by newcomer Evan Engram, with Adam Trautman and Nate Adkins also in the mix. In 13 regular-season contests with the Broncos in 2024, Krull posted a 19-152-0 line on 23 targets.

Tendered by Denver Krull was tendered by the Broncos on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Impact Krull entered the offseason as an exclusive-rights free agent and he will now stick around Denver for a third season in 2025. The tight end caught 19 of 23 targets for 152 yards in 2024 and he'll look to carve out a greater role for himself next season.

Records 19 grabs in regular season Krull finished the 2024 season with 19 catches on 23 targets for 152 yards and no touchdowns.

Impact Krull played 13 games in the 2024 campaign after appearing in just seven games in 2023. The 26-year-old tight end recorded career highs in catches, targets and yards this season while splitting playing time with fellow tight ends Adam Trautman and Nate Adkins. Krull paced the group in receptions and targets, as he became more involved in Denver's offense in his second season with the Broncos. The Pittsburgh product will enter this offseason as an exclusive rights free agent, giving the Broncos the ability to retain Krull as long as they offer him at least a one-year, league-minimum contract. Either way, Krull will look to take a step forward after gaining more experience this season.

Makes three grabs in loss Krull caught all three of his targets for 21 yards in Thursday's 34-27 loss to the Chargers.

Impact Krull finished the contest tied in playing time with Adam Trautman, as both tight ends finished the game with 28 offensive snaps. The 26-year-old Krull, however, was the more relied upon pass catcher, seeing three targets while Trautman was targeted just once. With that said, none of Denver's tight ends had a big game, including Nate Adkins who caught two passes for just 18 yards. Krull remains extremely difficult to trust for fantasy purposes while stuck in a timeshare. The Pittsburgh product will have his next opportunity to take a step forward when the Broncos visit the Bengals in Week 17.

Three grabs against Cleveland Krull caught all three of his targets for 24 yards in Monday's 41-32 win over the Browns.

Impact Krull paced all Denver tight ends in targets, receptions and yards Monday, though he played fewer offensive snaps (22) then both Adam Trautman (37) and Nate Adkins (26). The 26-year-old's involvement in the passing game, though minimal, was an improvement over his last two weeks in which he failed to earn a single target on 38 snaps in that span. Nonetheless, Krull is not seeing enough usage to garner any attention for fantasy purposes. The Broncos will host the Colts on Dec. 15 when they return from their Week 14 bye.

Back in action Krull (shoulder) returned to the field Sunday versus the Panthers, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports.

Impact Krull briefly left the game with a shoulder injury, but he has since returned. To this point, the tight end has caught both of his targets for 18 yards against Carolina.

Back in action Krull (shoulder) returned to the field Sunday versus the Panthers, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports.

Impact Krull briefly left the game with a shoulder injury but he has since returned. To this point, the tight end has caught both of his targets for 18 yards against Carolina.

Questionable to return Krull (shoulder) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Panthers, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.

Impact The tight end caught his only target for three yards before exiting. Krull recorded six catches for 57 yards and no scores in three previous games this season. The Broncos do not have another active tight end Sunday beyond starter Adam Trautman.

OCTOBER 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Three grabs in win Krull caught three of four targets for 41 yards in Thursday's 33-10 win over the Saints.

Impact Krull played 29 of the Broncos 65 offensive snaps Thursday, while fellow tight end Adam Trautman played 40 snaps. This comes a week after Krull's playing time nearly doubled that of Trautman against the Chargers in Week 6. Despite the flip in playing time, the 26-year-old Krull was the more effective of the two tight ends, as Trautman was unable to record a single catch on three targets. Meanwhile, Krull's three catches and 41 yards were both season highs for the Pittsburgh product. The 6-foot-6, 260-pounder has continued to push for a more prominent role in Denver's passing attack, and he'll have his next opportunity to do just that when the Broncos host the Panthers in Week 8.

OCTOBER 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Four targets in loss Krull caught two of his four targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Chargers.

Impact In his second game of the 2024 campaign, Krull appeared to take over the lead role at tight end for the Broncos, playing 33 of Denver's 55 offensive snaps, ahead of fellow tight ends Adam Trautman (17) and Nate Adkins (15). The 26-year-old Krull's four targets were the most any Broncos tight end has recorded since Greg Dulcich's eight-target game in Week 2 against the Steelers. It's possible that Krull could take over the top spot on the depth chart in Denver, but that role has not come with much production so far in 2024. The 6-foot-6, 260-pounder will look to build upon this performance when the Broncos visit the Saints in Week 7.

OCTOBER 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

One grab in debut Krull secured his lone target for five yards in Sunday's 34-18 win over the Raiders.

Impact Krull made his season debut Sunday after being a healthy inactive for the first four weeks of the 2024 campaign. The 26-year-old tight end played just 18 of the Broncos' 63 offensive snaps in the contest, behind both Adam Trautman (34) and Nate Adkins (32). Krull's involvement, though limited, coincided with the fact that teammate Greg Dulcich was inactive against the Raiders. It's possible his role as a pass catcher could increase throughout the season with Dulcich struggling to cement himself as a the top option in passing situations as many expected. Until then, Krull should not be trusted for fantasy purposes. The Broncos are set to host the Chargers in Week 6.

Cleared to play Sunday Krull is active for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

Impact After being a healthy inactive for the first four weeks, Krull is set to make his season debut. He caught eight of 14 targets for 95 yards and a touchdown last season and could see an increased role in Week 5 due to Greg Dulcich (coach's decision) being inactive.

Won't suit up Sunday Krull (coach's decision) is listed as inactive for Sunday's game at Tampa Bay.

Impact Krull is going to have to wait at least one more week before he makes his first appearance of the 2024 season. The Broncos will have to lean heavily on Greg Dulcich and Adam Trautman for snaps at tight end in Week 3.

SEPTEMBER 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Not suiting up in opener Krull (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's Week 1 matchup against the Seahawks.

Impact The reserve tight end is a clear No. 3 option behind Adam Trautman and Greg Dulcich, rendering his status as a healthy scratch in Week 1 unsurprising.

SEPTEMBER 8, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Cleared from injury Krull (toe) returned to practice Wednesday, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

Impact Krull exited the Broncos' exhibition game against the Colts on Sunday early with the injury. His quick return will help keep him firmly in the competition for the team's No. 3 tight end spot behind Adam Trautman and Greg Dulcich.

Exits exhibition game with injury Krull won't return to Sunday's preseason contest against Indianapolis due to a toe injury, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports.

Impact Krull initially headed to the medical tent after getting hurt and was then carted off the field. Prior to his exit, he caught all four of his targets for 31 yards and also lost a fumble. Krull is competing for the No. 3 tight-end role with Denver for the 2024 campaign.

Quiet in Week 17 Krull secured both of his targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 16-9 win over the Chargers.

Impact Krull played 33 percent of the team's offensive snaps behind fellow tight ends Adam Trautman (49) and Chris Manhertz (33). The 25-year-old involvement on offense took a dip in Week 17 after seeing five targets in Week 16. With limited opportunities, Krull remains far off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 18 matchup with the Raiders.

JANUARY 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Hits pay dirt in loss Krull secured four of five targets for 28 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-23 loss to the Patriots.

Impact Krull's touchdown was his first of the season while his four catches were a season-high in the five games he has appeared. The 25-year-old played 32 percent of Denver's offensive snaps behind fellow tight ends Adam Trautman (49) and Chris Manhertz (35). Despite the limited playing time, Krull's five targets were tied for a team-high in the contest. Even with his increased usage Sunday, Krull should remain far off the fantasy radar when the Broncos host the Chargers in Week 17.

Impact Krull was elevated to the active roster for the third time this season. He played 19 snaps -- 17 on offense, two on special teams -- and caught his only target for 35 yards. If the Broncos want to play Krull again this year, they'll have to sign him to the active roster as he's reached the maximum amount of elevations from the practice squad.

DECEMBER 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Joins active roster The Broncos elevated Krull to their active roster Saturday.

Impact After playing 22 offensive snaps in Denver's Week 13 loss to the Texans, Krull has been elevated to the team's active roster once again. Krull has appeared in three games over the course of his two-year career, and he'll look to log his first NFL catch in Week 14.
